Peter Beinart is joined by Dima Khalida (Founder and Director of Palestine Legal)to discuss the Trump Administration's recent Executive Order regarding antisemitism on college campuses.
Today's Rapid Response Friday helps separate fact from fiction when it comes to the heartwrenching issue of families being separated at the border. Is the Trump administration to blame? Did the recent Executive Order fix the problem? Listen and find out. First, though, we bring back (almost) everyone's favorite segment: Andrew Was Wrong! Specifically, Andrew was wrong when he predicted back in Episode 83 that Maajid Nawaz didn't have much of a defamation case against the Southern Poverty Law center, and in Episode 84 that he didn't have much leverage, either. Well, both of those predictions looked foolish now that the SPLC has agreed to pay Nawaz $3,375,000 and issue an unconditional apology. In the main segment, we break down Trump's EO regarding separating families at the border and requesting a modification to the Flores v. Reno settlement. It's bad. And if it weren't bad enough, we also discuss the administration's change in asylum policy. After that, we discuss the Supreme Court's recent opinion in Pereira v. Sessions. Surely that can't be bad news, too? (Don't call us Shirley.) Finally, we end with an all new Thomas Takes The Bar Exam #81 involving the constitutionality of a state legislature retaliating against two professors for pushing campus speech codes. Have we piqued your interest yet? Listen and find out! And if you'd like to play along , just retweet our episode on Twitter or share it on Facebook along with your guess and the #TTTBE hashtag. We'll release the answer on next Tuesday's episode along with our favorite entry! Recent Appearances Andrew was recently a guest on the David Pakman Show, with a two-part appearance discussing whether President Trump can be indicted and if so, whether he can pardon himself. You can watch the video on YouTube. Show Notes & Links We first discussed Maajid Nawaz's legal threats in Episode 83 and Episode 84. You can read the final Settlement Agreement for yourself as well as check out the SPLC's apology to Nawaz. Click here to read the Snopes article conclusively debunking the political claim that this policy was put into place "by Democrats." You can read Trump's recent Executive Order and also check out the original 1997 Flores v. Reno settlement. The operative laws discussed during the main segment were: 8 U.S.C. § 1158 (asylum); 8 U.S.C. § 1325 (“improper entry by alien”); and, of course, 18 U.S.C. § 46 (“transportation of water hyacinths”). You can also read the Attorney General's Interim Decision #3929 on refugees for yourself. As promised, this is the full list of Class B federal misdemeanors. We also discussed this Washington Post article on refugees being turned away at the border. This is the Supreme Court's recent opinion in Pereira v. Sessions. Finally, a secret Yodel for you folks who read the show notes: here's the link to the news that Michael Cohen's fired his old lawyers (McDermott, Will & Emery) and hired a new one (Guy Petrillo).

Today I finally dove into the 13 people named on Trump's EO from Dec. 21. I wanted to wait until more came out and the IG Report release day approached. Any day now it should be released, but before that happens, here's the dirt I could dig up on Trump's infamous 13... https://www.youtube.com/redirect?redir_token=a3RfNp-Ai8n9bLz47fbsprQpV5p8MTUxNjAzNjg2MEAxNTE1OTUwNDYw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fdocument%2Fd%2Fe%2F2PACX-1vS40qpsTDbBNKh8Uq-QYNJEA9BIuyGl3X-hz1-n7KuUwjmQ9-zPVDMwu8ZYuw87UT2NfRkfofbIG0TT%2Fpub&v=Mc2Wwr_51Cs&event=video_description
In this episode, Thomas and Andrew break down the Trump Administration's decision to withdraw from the Paris Agreement regarding climate change. First, however, we celebrate Thomas being prescient in taking an in-depth look at the Ninth Circuit's rather surprising decision regarding Trump's EO 13780, the so-called "Muslim Ban." In the main segment, Andrew and Thomas answer some questions and bust some myths regarding the U.S.'s withdrawal from the Paris Agreement. Can Trump do that? Can the states pick up the slack? Is there one weird trick that will solve climate change? The answers may surprise you. After that, Andrew tackles a fun question from patron Myk Dowling about disclaimers. Finally, we end with the answer to Thomas Takes the Bar Exam Question #28, which involved a pizza joint defaming a nearby burger hut. Can Thomas start a new, 2-game winning streak? Listen and find out! And, as always, we'll release a new #TTTBE question this Friday and answer that question the following Tuesday. Don't forget to play along by following our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and/or our Facebook Page and quoting the Tweet or Facebook Post that announces this episode along with your guess and reason(s), and don't forget that patrons who support us at any level get early access to the answers (and usually a fun post analyzing the question in more detail). Recent Appearances Andrew was just a guest on Episode 390 of This Week in Law, throwin' down the devil horns. Give it a listen! Show Notes & Links You can read the Ninth Circuit's recent opinion here. This is the text of Executive Order 13780. This is the text of Goldwater v. Carter, 444 U.S. 996 (1979), the odd case on whether a President can unilaterally withdraw from a treaty. This is a link to NASA's data regarding climate change. And this is the text of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, to which the U.S. was a signatory in 1992.

In this episode, the guys analyze the recent Presidential Executive Order Promoting Free Speech and Religious Liberty. First, though, we discuss why the show rejected a potential sponsor. Next, we answer a great listener question from our (only?) conservative listener, "Dan Dan the Conservative Man." Dan wanted to know about the exclusionary rule, so-called "illegal" aliens, a recent Supreme Court decision, and how all of those things play in to "Sanctuary Cities." We think we answered this. In our main segment, Andrew breaks down the meaningless portions of the Trump EO and contrasts them with the Definitely Unconstitutional provision. Then, we answer another listener question, this one from Shane Argo, who wants to know about the legal and philosophical reasons for treating "attempted murder" differently than regular murder. Finally, we end with the answer to Thomas Takes the Bar Exam Question #22 about a buyer who finds a priceless artifact at a yard sale and knowingly buys it for a fraction of its true value. Remember that TTTBE issues a new question every Friday, followed by the answer on next Tuesday's show.

Recent Appearances: None! Have us on your show! Show Notes & Links In Episode 52 of the show, we linked to this Facebook post by an immigration lawyer about the term "illegal" immigrant. We recommend you revisit both! Here is a link to Utah v. Strieff, 136 S.Ct. 2056 (2016), the case Dan asked about. This is the text of President Trump's Religious Liberty EO. And this is a link to David French's delightful article in the National Review complaining that Trump's EO doesn't go far enough.
